The biggest fish the administration has claimed so far has been a crackpot who wanted to destroy the Brooklyn Bridge with a blowtorch - a case that FBI officials said was not connected to the spying operation anyway…The secret program violates the law as currently written. It's that simple. In fact, FISA was enacted in 1978 to avoid just this sort of abuse. It said that the government could not spy on Americans by reading their mail (or now their e-mail) or listening to their telephone conversations without obtaining a warrant from a special court created for this purpose. The court has approved tens of thousands of warrants over the years and rejected a handful.

Which democratically elected party walked away victorious? Oh, it's Hamas! Yes, Hamas the militant Islamic group that is very anti-American and calls for the destruction of Israel, and wants a theocracy in Palestine. Though, on the plus side, they have returned all the money given to them by Jack Abramoff." --Jon Stewart

Subject: Nashville Protest

Hey Lisa,

We are planning to express some righteous rage with a protest when Bushie appears in Nashville, the morning after his SOTU performance.  It would be great if you could help us spread the word. The weather is beautiful in Nashville right now, perfect for a big turnout to let the Spying Crook-in-Chief know how America feels about him.

Details and updates as needed are here:

I always enjoy your kick-ass site!

Thanks for writing.

Good for you and all the protestors.

Bush has yet to be met by adoring cheering crowds in the streets of America (and the rest of the world).  It's comforting to know you'll keep it that way.

Thank you.

Can you please give us another one, not too big, maybe a Cessna flying into the Statue of Liberty? Amen."  - Grant Gerver

On This Day:

In 1933, Adolf Hitler became chancellor of Germany.

In 1972, 13 Roman Catholic civil rights marchers were shot to death by British soldiers in Northern Ireland on what became known as Bloody Sunday.

In 1964, the United States launched Ranger 6, an unmanned spacecraft carrying television cameras that was to crash-land on the moon.

Today, Bush still hasn't been impeached.
